Readers wanted Book Two of The Maryland Shores women's fiction series.Now the story continues with new and familiar characters alike

More than 15 years ago, Paul Romano once fantasized about Liz. Only he needs her now as a lifeline as he grieves loss and the death of his dreams for a family. Liz Kramer, a therapist, helps people process emotions. She'd forever remember Paul as her brother Steve's best friend-the Italian Stallion, fussy, smug but with razor sharp with wit and a heart of gold. Black and gold that is Liz could bleed purple on game day in Baltimore.

On the surface, Liz has the satisfying career, custom-built home and solid marriage. Until that idyllic Chesapeake life takes a plunge, and she needs Paul's friendship more than any fantasy to stay afloat...financially and otherwise.

Liz must manage two children, a passive-aggressive husband, two exacting bosses, and Paul's Pittsburgh mother who shares the same name as a brewing hurricane. Both head straight at Liz while forces swirl around Steve, jeopardizing his future with Maren.

See who gets another shot at happiness-and possibly love-with this intertwining story of second chances in The Maryland Shores women's fiction series.

Editorial Review: "Monroe's intimate connection to the Eastern Shore is revealed the moment you pick up this installment. The cover's languorous sunset with silhouetted lovers locked in a wistful embrace was taken in Ocean City, Maryland, which is (spoiler alert ) where the narrative culminates. The coastal love affair continues on the inside throughout its pages, capturing faithfully not only the intrinsic romance of the setting, but also the whimsical nature (purple-bleeding football fans steel themselves for the Baltimore-Pittsburgh rivalry). Ultimately, this entertaining and familiar tome will carry you away on tranquil currents." - Coastal Style Magazine

READER COMMENTS: "I wanted to stay immersed in Maren, Steve, and the Chesapeake Bay, and I was sorry to see Book One end. It was full of real emotion and experiences that women especially will recognize. I looked forward to Book Two "

AND: "Action packed from the beginning, Second Chances takes the reader places, depicting the easy pace and calming scenery on Maryland's Eastern Shore and beyond. Liz leads her life like many of us must-devoted to her children, committed to her career, and determined to stay sane though she's faced with surprises in her now rocky marriage. Readers enjoy Liz and Paul and they pick up on Maren and Steve from LETTING GO: BOOK ONE. I absolutely adored the way Lauren Monroe ended this novel and wouldn't have changed a word."

AND: "Lauren Monroe's novels compel you to turn the pages with enough depth to make the book encompassing. I was very pleased with the paperback edition "
